20 Best Filmmakers to Debut After 1990

Peter Berg worst's is Battleship, i don't know why the hell it says that it's underrated, maybe his next film will help him with some filmmaking creed.


"Most Underrated Movie in the World"

Twenty filmmakers and not a dozen good films in the bunch. No wonder film started to nosedive before 1980. 1910-1980. Check out the top 10 of those decades and you'll find artists. 1980 on unimaginative posers with all soughts of technical gadgets to enhance the image. Try telling a story.

There are loads of good filmmakers who didn't direct a feature film until after 1990; Quentin Tarantino, David Fincher, Frank Darabont, Danny Boyle, Jean-Pierre Jeunet, etc.

QT perfectly sums up the director's wasteland film has become with his juvenile, gratuitously violent takes on low budget chop socky films from the 70s that he pours millions into with the same results, drive in quality trash with all the slick bells and whistles it can buy to go along with relaxed censorship codes. Tarantino doesn't make films he makes comic books. He can apply all the lipstick he wants on these pigs but it will never elevate his minor talents no matter how many N or F words he throws at you. Today he's an artiste to the hipsters cuz he's so edgy but in the day when style and grasp of film language mattered he'd be little more than a schlockmeister.

That's your opinion, but plenty of people admire his work.

They have poor study habits then.

You got a point there---I actually think the man is a very talented writer, but let's face it---most of his movies aren't that original and are just basically take-offs on older films. The only original movie he did was JACKIE BROWN, and that wasn't even something he came up with---it was based on a book by Elmore Leonard (which explains why out of all the films that he's done, it's the most realistic (and probably his best, next to RESERVOIR DOGS.) DJANGO UNCHAINED was pretty good, but frankly, he just used the time period he set it in as an excuse to use the N-word over and over again, like a little kid who just couldn't wait to say it after he'd been told so many damn times not to---it was so childish and exploitative in some parts, I couldn't watch some parts of it. Plus QT's an arrogant bastard who's swallowed too much of the hype he's gotten over the years, and now believes his s*** dosen't stink---what an overhyped a**hole.

"Today he's an artiste to the hipsters cuz he's so edgy but in the day when style and grasp of film language mattered he'd be little more than a schlockmeister."

Truer words were never spoken (although they have actually been.)

Awesome stuff!
